5 out of 5 stars Mandatory reading for boys   December 21, 2008
Excellent book for the preteen and teenage boy. Raises good questions and gives great resources. I only wish I had written this book.


5 out of 5 stars Boy's Guide to Becoming a teen   December 14, 2008
This is well written and my 11 year old got it completely. Along with a parental discussion, this is a great way to introduce your tween to the facts of life.


5 out of 5 stars Perfect For a TWEEN Boy   July 8, 2008
This book was perfect for our son who just turned 10 and was starting puberty. It answered every single question he may have wanted to ask us but was too embarrassed or afraid. I would recommend this book to every mother/parent who has a son & would recommend that you read it first. Some of the content will be a review for your son - other content will be new!! I am so glad I found this book- it really explained what was happening to his body. Everthing from pimples, shaving, jock itch, etc.

I purchased this book for my son and he liked it alot. This book made it easy for him to talk to me about issues he had allready. I recommend this book its down to the point but not in a bad way.

I bought this book for my 10 year old. I was very pleased with the way it explained things. I read the book to him and answered any questions that he had as we went along. He did not have very many, because it was explained very well. However, there is a part in the book I did not read to him, which is the reason why I did not let him read the book by himself. The part touches on sex, which I don't have a problem with except for the fact that it explained oral and anal sex, and I don't feel like a 10 year old should know about things like that.
